South Dakota 2010/Moving 2010

We traveled to South Dakota for Jeremy's Grandmother's funeral in July.  We are sad to see her go, but know she is not in pain anymore.  The trip took about 26 hours.  The girls watched DVD's in the back and Jeremy and I took turns driving.  My feet swelled up pretty badly and look like tootsie rolls.  That was funny.  We finally got to South Dakota after our long journey and stayed at Grandma's  house.  We got to hang out with family and had a great time together.  The funeral was done nicely.  A lot of people came for it.  Lots loved Grandma.  She was such a kind person.  Jennah cried when she found out she passed away and still says things about her Great Grandma.  I am glad she got to meet her.

We came home and unpacked.  I also packed the house because we were moving.  Talk about an insane time in my life.  We went to SD, then had to pack to move, and then planned on going back to SD a week later.  I didn't think I could do it.  I got most of the house packed and then we had tons of help from our family and friends.  We couldn't have done it without them.  My boss Tammy watched the girls so that we could get things moved without kids running around.  We moved the entire house in a day and I got to put our new place together in a day and a half.  WOW!!!!!!

We didn't have anytime to enjoy our new place because we had to leave again for Jeremy's cousin's wedding.  I was going to miss the last week of work before school started so I worked my butt off at work and then had to leave.  It was so hard not being able to be at work but I was happy to be going to Jennica's wedding.  We left and it took about 25 hours to get up to SD again.  We FINALLY got there and checked into our room about 1:00 am.  The next day the fun began.  We went to the zoo with the girls and had fun going to the rehearsal dinner and then the wedding.  Jennica's wedding and reception was awesome!  I am so happy for her and Evan.  After the gift opening the next day we left and headed home.  All of the driving, fast food, and traveling WORE ME OUT!!!!!  I am so grateful we got to spend time with both sides of Jeremy's family this summer.

We got home on Sunday and I had to get to work the next day because it was the first day of school.  I thank you Lord for keeping us safe during our travels and for giving us such a great time with family and friends.  AMEN!
